Abstract

Abstract 57 The holster makes it possible to prevent a stranger from seizing the weapon by drawing it without authorization from the holster worn by the interested person. It comprises a pivotable cover (B) hinged at its one end (8) and able to cover, in its protective position, at least the hammer of the weapon. Said cover is pulled by a spring (5) to be brought to its open position, i.e., of release of the weapon, by turning in the direction opposite to that in which the grip (9) of the weapon is located. Said cover exhibits an appendix (1) solid with a right angle flange (2) which in the protective position engages quickly in an annular groove (3) of a fast-action lever (4) located on the inside of the holster, or next to the body of the person wearing it. A spring (6) pulls said lever (4) to its locking position. A further pivoted safety lever (7) prevents fast-action lever (4) from being moved from its locking position to open position.
